Issue with AndroidHttpClient

I'm getting an IOException from my code using AndroidHttpClient. Is there something wrong with the code? The code is thrown whether I use port 80 or port 443, and with Http Schema http or https.

The exception is thrown at client.execute...it is a UnknownHostException exception..I'm not sure why. I can hit the service from the browser.

        // declare locals
    JSONObject joResponse = new JSONObject();
    String response = "";

    try
    {
        // prepare to execute
        HttpHost target = new HttpHost(hostname, Const.HTTP_PORT, Const.HTTP_SCHEME);
        HttpGet get = new HttpGet();
        ResponseHandler<String> responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler();
        AndroidHttpClient client = AndroidHttpClient.newInstance(null);

        // execute
        response = client.execute(target, get, responseHandler); // this is where the exception is thrown

        joResponse = new JSONObject(response);
    }
    catch (ClientProtocolException e)
    {
    }
    catch (IOException e)
    {
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
    }

Do you have the internet permission declared in your app?

You need to add the following line to your AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
